Loss of sound after iOS 7 download on iPad 2

Help! I've noticed that since the. Download of iOS 7, I have begun to lose sound in most games and apps as well as keyboard, etc.. Music does produce sound. Certain games that produced sound immediately following the download, i.e. Plants vs Zombies 2, no longer have sound. Has anyone else experienced this or have any solutions for an easy fix?

If you lost sounds for keyboard clicks, games or other apps, email notifications and other notifications, system sounds may have been muted.
System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the control center. Swipe up from the bottom of the screen to get to control center . Tap on the bell icon and system sounds will return.
If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock can be accessed in the same manner as described above.
This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.

Wrong time after iOS 7 download on iPad Mini

I downloaded iOS 7 and after doing so the time was set PST when I am on EST. I manually reset the time zone to New York and set it to automatically adjust time but the circlular download icon just keeps turning and turning. I shut down and restarted but I still have the issue with the icon. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

My iphone 4s decided for some reason that rather than being in the UK as I am, it would be in the pacific/west coast timezone. Manually set it to LONDON and turned off the auto settings.
now all I need to know is what 4 year old designed the new interface? Icon group folders (grey), lower hotbar (grey), icons about twice as big as they should be. Glad the font size is scaleable. Also, no iphone, I really don't have 716 unread emails in my inbox.....

Why is my battery discharging so rapidly after iOS 5 download?

Why is my iPad1 battery discharging after iOS 5 download?

It is not just you - something is wrong...
I noticed a significant difference. Normally my iPad 2 would sit in my bag overnight and drain just a few percentages. Now it drains almost completely. I have turned off all services, fetch, location, etc - it helps a little, but the battery life is worse than before. When using my iPad 2 during normal usage, I could get through a couple flights and still have more than 50% battery - now I am lucky if it makes it the same time before getting to 0%. Something is wrong with the new iOS 5. I wish I wouldn't have updated...

for ipad,
if you go to settings-General
You can select between using the side switch to lock rotation or mute. If you select one mute, then the lock rotation icon will show up in the control center. If you select lock rotation, then the mute will show up. THe side switch is then used for the other option.

You have to update on a computer that is running the latest version of iTunes. When you connect the iPad to your computer and launch iTunes, iTunes should automatically prompt you to update the device. If not, you can click on the iPad name under the devices heading in order to select it - and then click on the Check for Update button in the Summary Tab of iTunes.
However, this is what I recommend, any time that you want to update your iOS device.
What you should do anytime that you update the device is to transfer purchases from the iPad into iTunes - File>Transfer Purchases - and you should backup the iPad as well. When you update the device, if something goes wrong, you can restore from the backup.
However, iTunes should ask if you want to backup before you update, but just in case create the backup yourself before you update. The backup contains your app data and settings - along with other items - so make sure you backup first.
If you have any other important files, you may want to transfer them to your computer as well, prior to the update.
Transfer purchases.

No sound after IOS 4.1 update

I really hope someone can suggest a solution. I updated my iPhone 3G to IOS 4.1 earlier today and since the I have lost all sound - no keyboard clicks, music or alerts. Has anyone else experienced this and could you offer a suggestion?
Many thanks

No sound for my iPhone 3G after iOS 4.1 update! Restored back to 3.1.2. Still no sound! (befor the 4.1 update, everything was fine).
Then I reset all settings, sound came back. But then iPhone started to freeze randomly, with increasing frequency to the point I needed to restore again. This time back to iOS 4.1. And guess what - no sound! Resetted all settings. Still no sound.
Key points:
* sound loss is software issue that came with iOS 4. (i was able to get sound back after settings reset but only on iOS 3.1)
* iOS 4.1 makes iPhone unstable both on 4.1 and earlier versions.
* restore has no effect (I never restored from backup, started as a fresh phone)
* iOS 4.1 destroys your iPhone 3G

IPad Air - no ringer sounds after ios 8.3 update

since updating to ios 8.3, my iPad Air has no notification or ringer sounds on apps. eg I'm unable to use the Alarmed app as there's no sound. The volume works ok on music and movies.
For 2 days after the update, the home screen showed the Ringer icon flashing On and Off on the home screen when I woke the iPad up. (it's stopped this although the fault remains).
I have held the home and power button and rebooted, but this doesn't solve the issue.
Any suggestions please?
I only updated from iOS 7 recently as was trying to avoid the dreaded update bugs....iOS 7 crashed. So does 8.3.

I'm not 100% sure that I know what you mean by "reset/restore." If it has NEVER been jailbroke, here are some standard repair procedures:
First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore (or it doesn't help), go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again. Also, read this.

No sound after iOS 7.0.6 update

Hello,
My iPad 2 has no sound after my iOS 7.0.6 update. I reset All Settings, shut down by holding the sleep/wake button and home several times and checked if my mute was on. When I press the volume buttons it says "Sound Effects" and no volume bars display. I checked my sound in settings and it chimes when change the volume but no sound in games, YouTube, Netflix, etc. Please help!
Thank you!

Mute switch got turned on. Ooooooops!

Loss of sound after waking up from sleep

I am currently using OS X 10.8.5 (12F37). After upgrading iTunes to 11.1 (126) I lose sound after the computer wakes up from sleep. This was not a problem prior to the iTunes upgrade. The only way to correct the problem is to restart or shut down then restart the computer. Are there any other solutions to this event?

This is not just a Mac Mini problem. I've found comments from people with all kinds of Mac, with any kind of external sound device, who all have this same issue.
The common factor is Mountain Lion.
Apparently there is a new build (12F42) which is supposed to fix this.
http://www.gadgetguide4u.com/new-os-x-1085-build-number-12f42.html
Apple released it to their employees on the 25th Sept.
Yet they don't even seem to have told their support people about it. My local apple store replaced my Mac Mini just on Sunday, because they didn't know why it was behaving like that. Needless to say, the new one has the same problem.
Here's hoping that build is available soon ...

I have several PNG files stored on my CC account but when I start a new photoshop touch project and try to add the PNG it downloads as a blank image. The dotted outline is there but the image is blank. It used to work before iOS 7 and now it does not. Can someone help.
This started happening after iOS 7 update and im having the same issue on iPhone and iPad.

Audio problem after ios 7.1 in ipad air

After updating to ios 7.1 in Ipad air I got the following problems.
After watching a movie via the video app and switching to home screen, the keyboard click sound is muted and also the lock sound is.
I tried for the solution by resetting my device 5 times but his didn't work.
Please let me know anyone has this kind of issue...Please report to Apple to fix this issue in next update.

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
Check your settings. The iPads have a small switch on the right edge. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430 It can be used as a rotation lock to keep the screen from automatically reorienting itself as you move around, but you need to have the tablet’s settings configured properly. That same switch, right above the volume buttons, can also be set to function instead as a mute button to silence certain types of audio.
If the switch is set to work as a mute button, you can change its purpose to “screen-rotation lock” by tapping the Settings icon on the home screen. On the Settings screen, tap General on the left side, and on the right side of the screen flick down to “Use Side Switch to.” Tap to select Lock Rotation or Mute to set the button’s function. Even if you set the side switch for your preferred use, you can still mute the Mini or lock the screen. Just double-click the Home button, and when the panel of apps appears along the bottom edge of the screen, flick the row from left to right with your finger. Tap the icon on the far left side of the row to either lock the iPad’s screen or mute the iPad’s alerts, notifications and sound effects. Music, podcasts and video are not muted unless you turn the volume all the way down.

To solve some sound problems, just follow these simple steps
1. Go to Settings
2. Tap on General
3. Tap on Reset
4. Tap on Reset All Settings
What this effectively does is to reset some of your Settings to factory default. It’s not a complete removal of settings. It removes all of your preferences for Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Do No Disturb, Notifications, General, Sounds, Brightness & Wallpaper and Privacy. It doesn’t affect your data. All of your email accounts will remain intact, as well as any SMS text or iMessages.

Loss of sound after updating IDT High Definition Audio Codec.

HP Support Assistant said a new IDT HI Def Codec driver was available so I downloaded and installed 6.10.6417.0 after which I have no sound output. I am not sure what driver version was installed before the update but I have since downloaded and installed 6.10.6330.0 and rebooted but still have no sounds. The device is enabled and Windows says it is working properly (which it isn't but then it is Windoz).
I am now totally at a loss as to how to proceed other than a clean install of Windows which for obvious reasons I would rather not do.
System details:
HP Envy 14-2002ea Beats Edition runing Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit SP1.
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Hi,
Try the following.
Download the IDT Audio installer on the link below and save it to your Downloads folder.
http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp53001-53500/sp53281.exe
When done, open windows Control Panel, open Device Manager and open up Sound, Video and Game Controllers. Right click the IDT device and select Uninstall - you should also get a prompt to remove the current driver, tick the box to allow this and then proceed with the uninstall.
When complete, shut down the notebook.
Tap away at the esc key as you start the notebook to launch the Start-up Menu and then select f10 to enter the bios menu. Press f9 to load the defaults ( this is sometimes f5, but the menu at the bottom will show the correct key ), use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter. Press f10 to save the setting and again use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter.
Let Windows fully load - it will automatically load an audio driver, but just let this complete. Then open your Downloads folder, right click on the IDT installer and select 'Run as Administrator' to start the installation. When this has completed, right click the speaker icon in the Taskbar and select Playback Devices. Left click 'Speakers and Headphones' once to highlight it and then click the Set Default button - check if you now have audio.

Tecra 9100 - Loss of sound after Windows Update.

I have just got hold of a 9100 second hand, and have been re-installing XP Pro. I have been going well, and had all but the SD Card working after downloading all the relevant drivers off Toshiba's site.
Micorsofts update site decided to download new drivers for the Yamaha sound card, and now it says NO Device.
I re-installed the drivers from the toshiba site, but despite everything I do it still shows no device.
Ive tried re-installing the Synth software as well, but this says I need to run the synth re-installer. But there is no directory on the drive for anything Yamaha, and no entry in the add/remove window for yamaha synth or on the start menu.
I am at a loss where to go next, short of starting yet again, and re-installing from the OS up, and thats a good days work.
Does a clean up utility exist so I can just do the sound card part again?
Help Please. :-(

No sound? The only solution I've found is to get a USB headset like the Logitech USB Headset 20. I have had this same problem with my Tecra 9100 for almost 6 months. I tried on a pair of USB Headset and it works! because it bypasses your internal soundcard. The downside is that if you have a great pair of speakers on your laptop, then it's kind of a waste that you can never use it. But at least, with this, you can now listen to CDs and chat on the internet

Why does my iPhone 4S not have sound after iOS 6 update?

After I downloaded iOS 6 I restarted my phone and when it came back on now sounds would play. I have restarted phone multiple time sound will not play and sound bar will not display anywhere.

I have an iPhone and an iPad Mini, but I only had the problem on the iPad Mini but this fix may work for you.
This is what I posted in another thread:
I HAVE FIGURED OUT THE FIX FOR THIS! ... (Well it worked for me on my iPad Mini.)
I saw a post from an apple rep telling a iOS 6 user to turn the side switch on to un-mute the sounds. A no-brainier yes, but it made me wonder if the side switch may have been temporarily "confused" after updating to iOS 7 because it added the new settings screen that swipes up from the bottom of the screen. I was using my side-switch to lock the screen rotation and it was in the "off" (down) position (red visible) and none of my notifications were sounding. So I flipped it up and down a couple times which didn't solve the problem. So logically, I proceeded to what inevitably solved the problem...
Go to Settings > General / "Use Side Switch To" and select the opposite of what you are currently using. I had mine on Lock Rotation, so I selected Mute. Then flip your switch up and down slowly a couple of times to see that the confirmation on the screen is correct. You may have to go back to settings again and select the other choice if you originally had Mute selected, I don't know because I originally had Lock Rotation in use.
Hopefully, this will fix your notification sounds (and the lock sound when you press the power button). After using this fix, you can set the use of the side switch to your preference and still have all of your notification sounds!

The iTunes Store doesn't open on iPad after iOS 7 download

After I downloaded iOS 7 and opened up the iTunes store, nothing came up. I just see a blank white/black screen depending on which tab (music, movies etc) is selected. I tried restarting the iPad and also switching off and turning the Wifi back on. Anyone else have similar issues? I have a 3rd generation iPad (64 GB).

I had this same problem. Tried everything the internet said including a full restore. Which was terrible. Nothing worked until.....go to general...reset....reset all settings.
You had to go back in and reset anything you customized afterwards, however it does not allow the store to load. Thanks!
